Also, as a new recruit with National Grid you are invited to join Newnet, our employee network for all new starters. With a whole range of events and activities organised by the members of Newnet, it’s a great way of meeting people and enjoying yourself.  Some of the events are fundraisers – and that’s as good a reason as any to get involved.  Plus there are many community and educational initiatives.
